I was 15 when my daddy died
Momma worked 2 jobs just to get by
Seemed like a blessin´ when Harley came around
So she took his name but i had my doubts
Didn´t take long for his drinkin ways
To start showing up on momma´s face
One violent night hiding under my bed,
I swore that he´dn´t see another sunset
Next day i followed him down to the riverbank
I knew one of us wouldn´t walk away
(Chorus 1)
Might of had a plan but he didn´t know it
Might of been scared but i did not show it
That is all between the river & me
With the current & the rocks it could´ve been risky
He might´ve been sober, but i brought the whiskey
And That is all between the river & me
I walked up to him & i said his name
Just so he could see the look on my face
We stood eye to eye & toe to toe
When i told him that he wasn´t going to come back home
He raised his fist to me but i did not flench
I said i aint your son or a son of a b****
(Chorus 2)
Might of had a knife in my back pocket
Might of pulled it out before he saw it
That is all between the river & me
I might of had a gun but i did not fire it
He might of tried to yell but i kept him quiet
That is all between the river & me
That is all between the river & me
Ohh.. river & me
Mmm.. yea
The sheriff came knockin´ on our front door
Said they found his body by the resevore
Bottle in his shirt, liquor in his blood
Must have fallen in the river & he never came up...
(Chorus 3)
Might´ve been blood but they never saw it
Just a little mud on the livin´ room carpet
That is all between the river & me
After what he did lord it aint no wonder
Can´t remember how long i held him under
That is all between the river & me
That is all between the river & me
Ohh, that is all, that is all between the river & me
Oooohh That is all between the river & me, yea
